Well, denying the holocaust is a specific offence in Austria - they're just a little sensitive about these things over there. It seems like a bizarre law to me, but my perspective is different from this side of the English Channel.
As for the cartoons: I think we did that one to death a while ago - completely bonkers.
Now, if you want really offensive stuff, take a look at this:

Thinking, thinking... this is in Australia, right? Don't they have big fish down there? I wonder how he'd feel if some uncovered meat were tied around his neck, and he went for a swim? After all, it'd be the fish's fault if the meat (and the Imam) were eaten, right?
Not condoning violence, just wondering out loud.
